Users->User Role Editor: select role, click ‘Posts Edit’.
But if you did not use role’s level restrictions, it’s difficult to guess, what’s a reason of your problem.
Can you share a copy of files and database with me? If it does not contain any critical data of course. I will check how URE works with your site copy under PHP debugging session then.
Or may be you can reproduce a problem using test site and test data? Then share them with me?Via DropBox, etc. Send download link to support [at-sign] role-editor.com
Hi Lori,
In general, a recent update does not include any critical changes to lead to so critical results. There are a lot of different installations and while home testing didn’t show any problem, it’s possible to meet one any way. That’s why it’s a rule of thumb to install any update to the stage/test copy of your live/production site and test there 1st. Or at least to create a fresh backup copy of your data before install the update.
Does a problem still exist if you deactivate URE Pro plugin?
Do you see custom post types if you login as a superadmin?
Does your ‘administrator’ role has all user capabilities included or some capabilities were lost?
Do you see any PHP error messages at your web server system log files?Can you reproduce a problem? That is install a copy of files and data on a moment before URE update, install update and get a problem you described? I mean that I need to reproduce it too in my local development environment, in order to start work on a fix.
“Duplicate Posts” includes roles to the roles list at its “Permissions” page checking this condition:
// role should have at least edit_posts capability if ( !$role->has_cap('edit_posts') ) continue;So if you wish to see your role there, then add ‘edit_posts’ capability to it. When you turn ON checkbox for a role here, “Duplicate Posts” just adds ‘copy_posts’ capability to it. And DP plugin shows checkbox for a role turned ON if that role has ‘copy_posts’ capability already. That’s it.
With my test example, I do not see my custom ‘Vendor’ role at DP permissions page roles list, but I have access to the duplicate post actions…
I suppose that you have some other condition, which prevents to use DP plugin for your custom role.
You use at a role level ‘Prohibit’. Check if those 3 users do not have ‘Allow’ at user profile. URE takes user level settings as a primary one and in case user has ‘Allow’ at user level any role settings with ‘Prohibit’ will be ignored.
If you go to Posts > Curator Access (in the left menu)
What plugin provides at your site by category menu items under Posts left menu?
Hi,
All menu items under Appearance menu are protected by the same ‘edit_theme_options’ capability.
1) Grant ‘edit_theme_options’ to a role of your user.
2) Use Admin menu access add-on to block unneeded menu items for this role.It seems a problem is not related to the capabilities granted to a user.
1) Try to switch temporally to the default 2017 theme;
2) Try to deactivate all plugins except WooCommerce and Duplicate Posts;
3) If 2 items above will not show a source of a problem, try to reproduce it on a test data copy or if its not critical, use live data. Provide me a copy of your site files and database. I will install them at my local development environment and find a reason using PHP debug session.It’s strange, that I have another result.
Compare my test role with yours.
Unfortunately, WordPress checks hard-coded ‘upload_files’ permission in order to show/hide “Add Media’ button at the post editor, the same ‘upload_files’ is checked in order to show “Upload Files” tab at the next opened “Add Media” page or give access to “Media Library->Add New” menu item.
So I don’t see a way currently how to solve this task.
Hi,
Look for ‘copy_posts’ or ‘copy_products’ capability. If it does not exist yet, add it manually. I answer without testing.
Hi,
Yes, ‘Allow’ applied to taxonomy IDs hides not only posts without allowed taxonomies, but the not allowed taxonomies too.
About users which don’t see any post. Check if there are posts with taxonomies (except prohibited IDs) which these users can edit. URE Pro hides from a restricted user any post, which this user can not edit.
If such post exists, can be edited by a user, but it’s not shown to a user according to edit restrictions you set, can you send me a little example of your posts, user permissions and edit restrictions set for him, in order I can reproduce an issue at my development environment?
